I think it may not need an update? I'm using a 120 with Fix2010. I wanted
to check how it was handling the date, so I booted it up yesterday and it
decided it was some day in 2057. But I set it back to the correct date and
did a couple soft resets and it seems to be keeping the date properly now.
So while there may be a glitch with passing over the actual rollover day,
it appears to be functional otherwise.
